Closing your Amazon account

When an Amazon account has been closed, it cannot be reopened. There is no cost for keeping an Amazon account open; you can leave your account dormant as long as you want without incurring any fees.

If you do decide to close your account, contact Customer Service to request a full account closure. Note that you don't have an Amazon Pay account to close — instead, you can close only your Amazon account.

Later, if you decide you want to use Amazon Pay again, just shop on a third-party website that accepts Amazon Pay, open a new Amazon account, and accept our User Agreement when you check out.
